Description
This guide provides the how-tos for recognizing and understanding various geologic hazards, and providing safe and economical construction. Expert Roy E. Hunt thoroughly examines the potential for slope failures, earthquakes, ground subsidence, collapse, and expansion. Using a clear conceptual approach, he explains what measures are available to minimize or eliminate the risks associated with each of these geologic hazards. The book sets forth the basis for recognizing, understanding, and treating geologic hazards, using general concepts rather than rigorous mathematical analyses. It is a useful tool for designing new projects and redesigning old ones.
